My brother has one in China. He has put on it over 1 million kms, and it never broke down, still running strong. Quality improved a lot than 10 years ago.

I have been privileged to be using Chery Tiggo 8 Pro for just over a year now, it’s a fantastic car having the smoothest ride, top notch features adaptive cruise control, ADAS, blind sport detector, spacious 7 seater. I have driven Audi A6 before and Cherry’s ride is not less smoother than Audi. Love it!!

I own the Tiggo 8 Pro 2022 in South Africa, and I can attest that this car does not disappoint. 1st class automobile all round. Would love to upgrade to the pro Max for more power and updated looks.

the most anticipated review for me this year, and reviewed by my favourite reviewer!

Based on the look, specs and given warranty, no doubt it's a very strong contender, personally I like it very much. But if to compare it with the X90, I would pick X90 (Flagship) due to some reasons: 1) For someone likes me who's currently owning a mid-size 3 rows MPV (with 2nd row captain seats and sliding door type), planning to change it to a similar size SUV, 2) For those who need to use it as a family car regularly with more than 2 kids on board, 3) Have been used to the conveniences to access 3rd row via the 2nd row aisle.
If someone just looking for a straight 5 seaters midsize SUV (hardly use the 3rd row in daily practice), this Tiggo 8 Pro is the best value-added deal against others straight 5 seaters SUV...

Awesome review as always Hafriz. You are totally killing it lately.

Emerald green...reminds me of the incredible hulk...this SUV is a very well designed car... hopefully the after sales service would be premium too

[zaim]

You are absolutely right about Msia not getting the latest models from other brands. Looking at you, Xpander

I choose tiggo 8 PRO..Excellent review. Thank you

Test driven the Toyota Innova Zenix and I was rather disappointed. Interior is rather basic for the petrol version and lack of many feature a modern car should have. So this Tiggo 8 Pro is definitely a much better option than the Innova Zenix.

[zakisahlani]

yup, I'll consider this compared to X90

[aimanfitriiv]

oh my god it looks pretty good i love the exterior looks and the best thing is it supports apple carplay and android auto that's a must-have for me 😁💖😍😄

[seansprint]

I probably get this car. As this ride do gets a lot of good comment in China and existing owner feedback in China is great as well. Well done 🍒

[eddiejamaluddin]

mmg best drive kete ni..interior mewah..engine power lagi2 kalau guna sport mode..

[vertigoblack]

This is where u can see how much other more established brands are skimping on the specs to make as much money from you. The only drawback for less popular brands are aftersales service and resale value. Lets see how this brand will fare 2 years down the road before making any decision to buy.

Chery have grow so much cars instead of the Omoda 5 and the oldest one, Eastar 2.0. 😊👍

[oliverodell]

Makes you wonder what the Proton team have been up to given how much longer they've had to nurture the Geely connection to see now other brands come in so fast and with such ranges...

[fyzal]

At 6:18 when Hafriz reached out to the dashboard then suddenly pans to a female hand... that got me for a bit... lol
